I'm attaching an image from the Gruen Model ID Guide Vol 1 to show one other aspect of this watch perhaps not known to you and that is the faceted crystal that originally accompanied them. All six of the ad images I have show this faceted crystal and often mention it in the wording of the ad. I personally believe they were only sold with this crystal.

That's surprising to me. I feel like you usually see faceted crystals on cases that sort of "ask" for them, and this one doesn't really to me.
